Vrijschrift to Dutch Parliament: EU Cyber Resilience Act will harm competitiveness
Dear all, Vrijschrift to Dutch Parliament: EU Cyber Resilience Act will harm competitiveness The EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) proposal aims to make products containing software and software itself more secure. [1] This objective is endorsed by Vrijschrift. The Minister of Economic Affairs and Climate has written to the Senate that concerns regarding open source software have been “extensively addressed” by means of a recital. However, recitals do not have independent legal force; the amendments of the Council of the EU are ineffective. The CRA, if adopted in this form, will seriously harm the open source ecosystem and the competitiveness of the European economy. https://www.vrijschrift.org/serendipity/index.php?/archives/262-Vrijschrift-... kind regards, Ante
